Honestly, most of the lists, goals, plans that my husband and I have made year after year have not come to fruition.
Do the Last Thing God Told You to Do.
"Are you going to die?” my four-year-old son asked. Tough questions during everyday moments.
As a mother of little ones, I deeply desire feeling recognized for what I do. Here's how unexpected grace found me on a day the Lord met my greatest need.
No one was there to praise me for how I managed the house or the kids. And the world certainly didn’t exalt my line of work either. No promotion. No monetary compensation. And although I wouldn’t change anything because I knew the seeds that I was sowing were eternal in nature, the temporal feeling of loneliness was nonetheless felt.
Weight-Loss: Focusing on the Process...Not the End Results
After a few weeks of doing some at-home workouts, aside from being “sore” a few days in a row, I saw very little results from my sweaty workouts.
My husband assured me that “these things” took time. He was quite the professional at this point in coaching and encouraging me through any postpartum woes. We just had our third child. But I wanted some sort of results. Anything to motivate me to keep at it.
Stop Saying These Curses Over Your Children
1 Verse that showed me the heart of God: He's better than you thought
Sis, the sins you love today..will affect your children tomorrow. There's HOPE.
Beware: A dangerous mentality invading Christian culture
9 Movies and Documentaries you should be watching (but probably aren't)
Often, my husband and I spend/waste an hour or two just trying to decide what to watch. And to be honest, we often end up, more than once, finding what we thought was a “good” film, only to turn it off minutes later because our selection was either too low-budget, too spiritually dark, or too graphic.
That time I discovered Jesus came through a prostitute: Do you know what this means?
The implications of understanding are highly underestimated. Jesus understands why you’re not trusting Him right now..why you just shutdown after hearing that comment…what led you to that particular inner struggle in your life. His understanding doesn’t excuse nor justify your sin. But He understands…and He forgives.
